Marshmallow mumbles

Work work work has been so busy, so blogging has been left behind :-( but I'm back again and with these lovely little babies…so appropriate for a baby shower. A dear friend contacted me asked she wanted chocolate and pink, and whala, marshmallow mumbles appeared. These delectable treat is one of my trusted chocolate cupcakes recipes, stuffed in the middle with a soft and squishy marshmallow, and topped it off with lovely marshmallow flavoured meringue icing. I added a lovely pink daisy and a few pink crystals…yes it is for a beautiful little baby girl!

I made a nice pink icing as well a lighter pink icing, I actually ate a lot of icing…mmm meringue is my favourite icing in the world. 

Kid cupcakes #1

One of my friends gave me the opportunity to make some interesting kiddy cupcakes for her son. He was turning six. I was so excited, never have I even attempted kiddy cupcakes, so I put my creative 6 year old cap on and away I went into the kitchen.

And here is the end result, beautiful piggy’s and froggies. I had so much fun, playing with different sweets and biscuits. I just made a plain chocolate and vanilla cupcakes, with yummy frosting on top and all the extra little goodies. And oh don’t forget the all important glitter J

All I can say is again have some fun, let your imagination run wild and get back into that sandpit, on those monkey bars and never forget that there is a 6 year old in all of us.
